Not if its an automatic as it will damage your transaxle. It will have to be with the front wheels lifted off the ground i.e. a tow dolly. If its a manual shift then yes. I would still recommend the front wheels to be lifted off the ground if you intend to exceed 40-45 mph.
If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
